Betaing woes, etc.
Random notes, last Friday I went to the nearest indie movie theater and saw the Animated Oscar shorts (Sanjay's Super Team and Bear Story are my favorites), and the new Michael Moore movie, which I highly recommend to Americans who are open to seeing Michael Moore movies.
And last night I finished up the first of the three stories in PopoloCrois PSP. Still chickening out of finishing Minish Cap, though.
Which actually segues neatly into the title topic. So awhile back I posted here (F-locked) and on a couple of DW/LJ beta search comms looking for a beta for my Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap fic, and got no response. This is not meant to be a guilt trip, nobody is obligated (and I have been a stranger a lot, I admit).
Thing is, I don't know what to do now.
I checked the Yuletide beta spreadsheet, nothing LoZ related.
I tried facing my fear of fandom-specific spaces, but on LJ and DW it turned up mostly cricket sounds. (I dunno, do people handle this stuff on tumblr these days? I should give tumblr another try anyway...)
I have a RL friend or two who might be willing to look at it, but they probably wouldn't be familiar with the source material at all and it's, like, scary...
Posting it unbeta'ed is always an option, and experience suggests that I can usually get away with it and not regret it, but maybe that's just more chickening out?
I just don't know.
